“Zurita creates a wonderful body of work that marks a point of no return for the poetics of the previous generation and for which he stands out among his generation….” —Roberto Bolaño
“In brutal opposition to the pouring of libations into the earth for future good harvests, Pinochet’s regime harvests humans and dumps them into the holes of the earth: the oceans and volcanoes. These deaths cannot be understood and this poem is not for understanding. Zurita’s INRI asks without asking: what forms may avenge our avalanche of unjust deaths.” —Helen Dimos
“These poems arise into the English language as spirits of dissidence attesting to fascist violence whilst daring beauty.” —Verity Spott
